From people I know who have been fired by them, that orange company is going to put it on your DAC. They’ll either put it as failure to follow company policies or straight up avoidable accidents. Should have talked to them. Trucking ain’t like quitting Walmart. That DAC crap haunts you.
You have 4 months? Most of the megas won’t touch you now. Maybe some companies that require 3 months experience may overlook it. Wait about a week or two then check your DAC. If it’s up there, tell recruiters the truth UPFRONT on the phone. Don’t go to orientation without telling them because they’ll end up seeing it and send you home anyway — and now that company is part of your job history.
You’ll probably end up working a 1099 job for someone. Could end up making way more money than you were as a rookie driver for the orange team. So it’s not all bad. Just say bye bye to the nice fancy equipment and infrastructure.

Troubleshooting class should of got you more help. Houston guys, when I was there were the best! They gave us all their number and have told us to call them even in the middle of the night and they would walk us through a sticky situation.
I had had instances where I had to do minor work on trailers to get them to unload. Had little to no hydraulic fluid on some and used engine oil to get it pumping to offload.
I chalk it up to them not providing you the resources to help you through everything. -
For sure those incidents will go on your DAC report.
Other than that, shouldn't have any problem finding a new job.
